Mirage 450 Speakers completed

The Mirage 450 speakers got a complete overhaul this week, here is the completed project.




Here is what they looked like when I got them home.


New polypropylene capacitors. I ran a 4.7uf and 3.3uf cap parallel to equal 8uf as per the original caps.




The terminal plate got new gold plated binding post.



The woofers got a new lease on life with a re foam job.



New internal dampening material was put in along with new gaskets to seal the acoustic suspension design of these speakers. I was surprised at the lack of sealing gaskets originally installed in these speakers.

The last thing that needs to be done is new speaker grill cloth but that can wait as I am enjoying the sound of these speakers.
